Good, but could have been great...

Rating: 8/10 (12 July 2013)

The Good:
Superb action (The best so far this year) and Groundbreaking VFX. The director, to his credit, makes awesome use of the technology available and makes us feel every Punch and blows traded between the scary kaijus and the *huge* jaegers (seriously, they make the transformers look like toys)
Great acting by Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi and of course, Ron Perlman
Epic background score
The Bad:
The lead character is not that well portrayed and his motivations are weak and his arc is not given justice. The two scientist types are super annoying
The movie is full of clichés, which really shouldn't have been the case For a movie which looks this good.
In summary,Pacific Rim is better than the blockbusters which have released this year. It promises epic action, and delivers it in spades. But for those who are looking for something extra, it disappoints.Pacific Rim is by no means a bad movie, but it could have been so much better...
7.5/10
